Knicks Reportedly on the Verge of Trading Chandler and Felton
The Knicks are reportedly on the brink of trading Tyson Chandler back to the Dallas Mavericks, along with Ray Felton. That's all well and good, but the take back of Jose Calderon, Shane Larkin, Wayne Ellington and Sam Dalembert, not only lacks any picks, but also, jams up their future cap. So the question will be, can they turn any of these acquired players into picks tomorrow night? Larkin has some upside, and might be the keeper in the deal.
UPDATE: The Knicks may indeed be getting both of the Mav's 2's, 34 and 51 tomorrow. Big difference!

Dalembert Team option coming season
Calderon has a sucky contract
Larkin $1.6 this coming season
Ellington $2.5 this coming season
Calderon may have a bad contract $7.7 per for the next 3 seasons), but he is a true point guard, has a good jump shot, and plays defense. Not an all-defensive team candidate, but he will be a factor there.
I would do this in a heartbeat, especially if there are any picks coming back.
Confirmed with 2 picks, great first move Phil!
